Yeah, my downpipes fit around it pretty good...the dip stick is touching in one spot but I can bend that away.

Been a while since I updated. Everything is back together. C4 is in and ready to go, just have to mount the trans cooler. wiring was a bitch, couldn't figure out how to splice into the factory wiring so I had a bright idea. Instead of hacking up the factory wiring this is what I did. key needs to be in run position, the neutral safety switch on the hurst quarter stick means the car has to be in neutral, just hit the toggle to crank.


It's still not firing but should have it figured out shortly. I have fuel, spark, and compression. I'm pretty sure I have the dizzy in right and plug wires correct but still no go. I hope to get it running this weekend so I can tune it and get it to the track next weekend.

I was in Windsor twice this year which is a record for me, once to meet my birthmother/bury my Dad in Feb and vacation with my wife in Aug. I don't think we will be back soon as next year we plan on driving as far north in Canada as one can drive. Like I said glad to see you back on CMOC

I should be taking it to the track (Sparta) this weekend. Probably Sunday. Not going to break any records, just to literally test and tune lol. I have a couple little things to finish up before then, change my thottle cable, fix a trans coolant line leak, hook up my remote kill switch and then some street tuning.

I won't be going to try and run it's best this time out. Just got it running again so it's going to be shakedown runs, low boost and pump gas. Be nice to be in the 11s but who knows. If everything runs good, and if I can get some race gas before then, I might pop in some injectors and crank up the boost and see if they toss me for running 10s without a cage.
